In the table I have a list of different tests (Column A) and their results (Column B).
Now, I am looking for a formula in Cell B7 which always displays the first error it can find within Range("B1:B6"). Basically, something like this:
=VLOOKUP( --> non-o.k. <-- ,B1:B6,1,FALSE)
Is there a VLOOKUP function that looks for the first non-matching criteria?
Maybe try:
=LOOKUP(1,1/(B1:B6<>"O.K."),B1:B6)
Or rather:
=#FILTER(B1:B6,B1:B6<>"O.K.","")

Good Morning,
I'm trying to formulate something in Excel that allow us to check if the value of two columns are new in a list, and if so, assign a new ID for them. If it's not, let it "Blank" or Assign the same ID that have been assigned before(Either way would work for me).
I'm trying to use something with Count.if, but it doesn't fit. As i'm thinking about this for some time, i decided to look for help.
What i want to do is a formula that solves the "Formula" Columns below:
Space|Name|*Formula*
1 | AB | 1
1 | AB | 1
1 | AB | 1
1 | CA | 2
2 | DD | 3
2 | EE | 4
2 | EE | 4
3 | SS | 5
3 | SS | 5
1 | ZZ | 6
1 | AB | 1
Sequential Numbering of Groups of Data
In cell C2 use the following array formula (Ctrl,Shift+Enter):
=IF(COUNTIFS(A$2:A2,A2,B$2:B2,B2)=1,MAX(C$1:C1)+1,
INDEX(C$1:C1,MATCH(1,(A$1:A1=A2)*(B$1:B1=B2),0)))
Then copy C2 and pastedown from C3 to the last cell.
If you're satisfied with just numbering each first occurrence then use the following formula:
=IF(COUNTIFS(A$2:A2,A2,B$2:B2,B2)=1,MAX(C$1:C1)+1,"")
Both solutions use the headers i.e. the headers must not be numbers.
If you don't mind non-sequential numbering, you can just return the index of the first match found as your identifier:
Copy into C2, then fill down as necessary. The match row stop may need alteration based on how much data you have
=MATCH(A2&"#"&B2, A$2:A$100&"#"&B$2:B$100,0)
Or as an array formula (only need to place in C2);
=MATCH(A2:A11&"#"&B2:B11, A2:A11&"#"&B2:B11,0)
I'm trying to do sequential summing on a spreadsheet.
The first rows are data by date, and I want do sums by the week. but Excel's autopopulate keeps screwing it up and I don't know how to fix that.
Date A
----
1 | 5
2 | 5
3 | 5
4 | 5
5 | 5
6 | 5
7 | 5
8 | 5
9 | 5
10 | 5
11 | 5
12 | 5
13 | 5
14 | 5
so what I want in another area
Week Total
1 | =sum(A1:A7)
2 | =sum(A8:A14)
3 | =sum(A15:A21)
4 | continue like this for 52 weeks
but what excel keeps giving me with it's auto populating is
Week Total
1 | =sum(A1:A7) #The first iteration
2 | =sum(A2:A8) #auto generated
3 | =sum(A3:A9) #auto generated
How can I get excel to give me the results I want here? I've been searching on summing for a while and can't seem to even phrase my question right.
=sum(indirect("A"&(row()*7-6)&":A"&(row()*7)))
pasted in row 1 and below should work
at least in sheets, it does. (and excel docs say indirect works)
Lets say I have this kind of spreadsheet:
P1A | P2A | P3A| RA
1 | 2 | 3 | 1
2 | 4 | 2 | 4
1 | 3 | 3 | 3
Where each row represents answers to a question.
First row is title row. P1A - P3A is player1 through player3 answers and RA is the right answer.
Is it possible to add subtotal row which will show number of right answers for each player without adding extra columns for making "IF" tests.
So the total will look like this:
1 | 2 | 1
You can use sum product to find this. Use the formula like below
=SUMPRODUCT((A2:A4=$D2:$D4)*1)
I struck with problem of getting reports from table, that look like this:
C1| C2 | C3 | C4
A | 2015-05-15 | 34 | 4
A | 2015-03-12 | -4 | 5
A | 2014-03-12 | 24 | 8
B | 2015-11-10 | -4 | 5
B | 2015-06-12 | 3 | 5
C | 2013-05-12 | 3 | 5
...
600+ rows
...
So I need to make a diagram by different value columns (C3 and C4) grouping by values in the first column. In usual case it is achieved with to separate table which a looks like this (e.g. for col3):
A | B | C | ....
34 | -4 | 3 | ....
-4 | 3 | | ....
24 | | | ....
For col4, I need a table with the similar layout. So in short, I need to make some pivotal table by without aggregation on value per term. Is it possible to get such small table with the original table? If you can offer some other layout for original data which will be more suitable (and easier, in ideal with standard excel functions) for this task, fell free to offer - with some Python script I can resave it.
Find a simple solution: just download tool Tableau. It affords to create very flexible graphs based on raw data, freely place any col as row and vice versa, groping also available.
First, I will assume that C1,C2,C3,C4 are column headings in A1:D1 and the data is in A2:D1000
In F1:H1 place C3,C3,C3
In F2:H2 place A,B,C
In J1:L1 place C4,C4,C4
In J2:L2 place A,B,C
In F3 place the following array formula:
=IFERROR(INDEX(OFFSET($A$2:$A$1000,0,MATCH(F$1,$A$1:$D$1,0)-1),SMALL(IF($A$2:$A$1000=F$2,ROW($A$2:$A$1000)-ROW(A$2)+1),ROWS(F$2:F2))),"")
Don't forget to use Ctrl+Shift+Enter to make it an array formula instead of just using Enter for a normal formula.
Copy F3 to F4:F7, G3:H7 and J3:L7
You end up with something that looks like this:
| A B C D E F G H I J K L
----|--------------------------------------------------------------------
1 | C1 C2 C3 C4 C3 C3 C3 C4 C4 C4
2 | A 15/05/2015 34 4 A B C A B C
3 | A 12/03/2015 -4 5 34 -4 3 4 5 5
4 | A 12/03/2014 24 8 -4 3 5 5
5 | B 10/11/2015 -4 5 24 8
6 | B 12/06/2015 3 5
7 | C 12/05/2013 3 5
Decomposing the formula in F3:
=IFERROR(INDEX(source column,SMALL(filtered row numbers,ranking)),"")
Where:
source column is OFFSET($A$2:$A$1000,0,MATCH(F$1,$A$1:$D$1,0)-1)
filtered row numbers is IF($A$2:$A$1000=F$2,row numbers)
row numbers is ROW($A$2:$A$1000)-ROW(A$2)+1
ranking is ROWS(F$2:F2)
How the formula works is a multipart explanation:
IFERROR(formula,"") If the embedded formula produces an error then we display an empty cell instead. This is useful since we don't know how many results we will get.
INDEX(range,row) Get the value in the row we want to see. The row number here is dynamically generated based on whether the data matches the criteria.
SMALL(array,k) Extract the kth smallest value in the array. The array is the filtered values. k is just a number depending on which row in F we put the formula in.
IF(criteria,value) Based on the criteria either produces the value or FALSE.
ROW(cell) The row number of the cell
ROWS(range) The size of the range
So in the array formula:
ROW($A$2:$A$1000)-ROW(A$2)+1 is a list of all the row numbers in the range starting at 1
IF($A$2:$A$1000=F$2,ROW($A$2:$A$1000)-ROW(A$2)+1) is a list of just those row numbers that match the criteria
SMALL takes the filtered list and returns the kth smallest filtered row number which means that F3 gets the first one, F4 gets the second one, etc
INDEX grabs the data at that row number and displays it
I got the idea for this from http://www.exceltactics.com/make-filtered-list-sub-arrays-excel-using-small/ and on that page is a really good explanation of how it all works.
Here's the scenario. I have a large spreadsheet of candidates for NHS at my school that are given a score by several teachers, community members, etc. I average out their score and then based on that number they are given a score/value from a rubric. I am looking for a formula that will read the value of cell X (their average score) and display a specific value in cell Y(their rubric score). The following is the criteria:
value<2.0, display 0
value>2.0 value<3.0, display 1
value>3.0 value<3.5, display 2
value>3.5 value<3.75, display 3
value>3.75, display 4
I tried looking this up and the closest I found was a formula that I modified to look like this:
=IF(I10="AVERAGE_CHARACTER",IF(I10<2,0,IF(AND(I10>2,I11<3),1,IF(AND(I10>3,I11<3.5),2,IF(AND(I10>3.5,I11<3,75),3,IF(I11>3.75,4,0))))))
All it says is FALSE in the cell. Not sure if I'm using the wrong formula or have a typo in the formula. Thoughts? If there is an alternate or easier method, I'm open for suggestions.
Thanks!

It's easy if you keep the thresholds and the rubric in separate arrays:
=LOOKUP(A1,{0,2,3,3.5,3.75},{0,1,2,3,4})
You might use something like: (value to be changed in A1)
=VLOOKUP(A1,{0,0;2,1;3,2;3.5,3;3.75,4},2)
or having a table like this: (value to be changed in C1)
| A | B |
1 | 0 | 0 |
2 | 2 | 1 |
3 | 3 | 2 |
4 | 3.5 | 3 |
5 | 3.75 | 4 |
=VLOOKUP(C1,A1:B5,2)
